Diatomic phenols as nucleophilic components in the carbonylation of the chelated C,N-palladacycle of the ferrocene series

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/s11172-005-0206-7

The carbonylation of the chelated palladium derivative of dimethylaminoferrocene in the presence of diatomic phenols affords mixtures of the corresponding mono- and diacylated dihydroxybenzenes containing a 2-dimethylaminomethylferrocenyl fragment in the acyl moiety.
